The Limited Art Edition 2016 will be produced in an edition of 7,000 and will include the digital work of video art on carrier media. A highly limited run of Collectors Editions is also being released. These will include one of sixteen numbered editions of the commissioned video, a unique still image from the video, and a signed certificate by the artist.

Olivia McGilchrist’s work is rooted in a Caribbean-centered, multi-media art practice. By interweaving moving images and sounds, the artist suffuses the natural world with new meanings and colors that capture profound narratives about the history of the Caribbean. “from many sides” utilizes digitized renderings to create an immersive, multi- sensory experience that blends landscapes, cultures, stories and people of the Caribbean region and highlights the rich heritage of the region through a variety of content unique to local experiences, reworked and presented as an interactive work of art.

The Davidoff Art Initiative was designed to build more visibility and recognition for art and artists in the Caribbean. In addition to offering residencies and grants, the DAI produced the first Limited Art Edition in 2014 to help garner appreciation for Caribbean art.

Since 2012, Davidoff has been an Associate Partner of Art Basel in Basel, Miami Beach, and Hong Kong. During each show, Davidoff operates a hospitality lounge in the Collectors Lounge, offering guests an opportunity to experience the brand and where you can learn more about the Davidoff Art Initiative.
